The Way of Wisdom
Preacher: Funmi Ojetayo
Text: Ecclesiastes 10
BIG IDEA: Walk wisely in your words, your work, and your witness—because folly isn’t just dangerous; it’s deadly.
I. The Ruinous Road of Folly (vv. 1–3)
+ One moment of folly can outweigh a lifetime of wisdom.
+ The fool’s heart leans away from God—and that lean leads to ruin.
II. Wisdom Seasons Our Speech (vv. 12–14, 20)
+ Wise words are gracious, humble, true, and loving.
- A wise person speaks worshipfully
- A wise person speaks encouragement
- A wise person speaks the truth
- A wise person speaks with gentleness
- A wise person speaks with humility
- A wise person speaks love
+ Foolish words are destructive, presumptuous, and loud.
III. Wisdom Shapes Our Work (vv. 8–11, 15, 18–19)
+ Fools are busy but aimless; their labor wearies but produces little.
+ The wise sharpen their tools, steward their time, and labor for God’s glory.
+ Wisdom knows when to act and when to wait.
IV. Wisdom Responds to Folly in Power (vv. 4–7, 16–17)
+ Fools in high places create chaos below.
+ The wise remain calm, rooted, and faithful—like Jesus before Pilate.
+ Our hope rests not on Capitol Hill—but on Calvary’s hill.
